Not at all.....if the total amount of data provided to the drive is

above the "minimum streaming rate" of the drive, then the drive will run

at a constant speed, and the slower client will just have have fewer

blocks on the tape than the faster clients.

 

So your data interleaving on the tape, if client A and B are twice as

fast as client C, will look like:

 

A-B-A-B-C-A-B-A-B-C-A-B-A-B-C-A-B-A-B-C....

 

Well, sort of...it won't be as neat as that.

 

The idea of multiplexing is to provide data to the drive fast enough, ie

combining datastreams from multiple clients, so that it will not need to

stop/rewind.
